Theme teams are a red herring. They aren't being addressed. Throwing games is. It's appalling that you don't see the ethical problems this presents.
1. You give your promise to abide by the TOS when you play. Theme teams are. They aren't purposefully losing. There is an enormous difference between not winning and losing on purpose.
2. What about the 1-2 guys who miss a WC spot because of this tanking? What says you to them?
3. What about the 29 guys in the lower league that these two will land on next season being deprived of a fair chance?
In the end, either your word means something, or it doesn't. If it doesn't, what does it say about you...or our community at large? I'd like to think we're better than that.
